5 Ideas

• Lighting has to be right
• framing can be key
• don't intersect objects in the photo
• rule of thirds makes the photo interesting
• eyes need to pop in pictures

My favorite photographer would have to be Steve McCurry because his photos are unique and makes sure that all of his pictures have meaning.

My favorite photograph would bethe picture of the little boy holding the gun to his head bacause it shows a lot of meaning and the reality of life.

Yes these photos did help reinforce what we have learned in class, like lighting, eyes, not intersecting, and emotion. One that i noticed the most was eyes, especially in the famous photo of the afgani girl. The eyes draw you into the picture. Another one that i noticed a lot wasnot intersecting, especially in the photo with the three boats. Because they boats are not intersecting, the picture is more appealing and tells a story.

 

Discussion on Lighting

Using dramatic lighting you under expose the the picture so you get the lighting right.
On a normal lighting you take your normal exposure.
